About Duolingo
Duolingo is the world's most downloaded language learning app, used by over 500 million learners globally. Founded in 2011 by Luis von Ahn, Duolingo pioneered bite-sized, gamified lessons that make language acquisition fun and habit-forming.
The app covers over 40 languages and uses spaced repetition, listening exercises, and speaking practice powered by AI. Its adaptive algorithm personalizes lessons based on your performance, ensuring efficient learning at your own pace.
Duolingo offers a freemium model — the core experience is entirely free, while Duolingo Super removes ads and unlocks additional features. The official Duolingo English Test is widely accepted by universities worldwide as a proof of English proficiency.
